%C From _Peter Bala_, Nov 21 2017: (Start)

%C The sequence terms have the form 4*m + 1 (follows from the recurrence).

%C For k = 2,3,4,... the difference a(n+k) - a(n) is divisible by k (proof by induction on n making use of the recurrence - the starting case a(k) == a(0) (mod k) for all k follows from the sum formula for a(k)). Hence for each k, the sequence b(n) == a(n) (mod k) is periodic with the exact period dividing k. (End)

%C Compound Poisson distribution with parameter 1 and distribution Geometric(1/2) has a probability mass function p_n = a(n)*e^(-1/2)/(4^n*n!). More specifically, let S = Sum_{i=0..N) X_i where X_i's are i.i.d. random variables with Geometric(1/2) distribution (i.e., Pr{X_i = k} = 1/2^(k+1) for k=0,1,2...) and N is a random variable with Poisson(1) distribution independent of all X_i's. Then Pr{S=n} = a(n)*e^(-1/2)/(4^n*n!) = a(n)*e^(-1/2)/A047053(n) for nonnegative integers n. - _Xiaohan Zhang_, Nov 16 2022
